q

chine with the bucket directed downwards and carry out the
following operations:
1 - Rotate the bucket forward and rest it on the ground.
2 - Apply the parking brake.
3 - Stop the engine.
4 - Put wedges or safety blocks under the wheels.
Always rest the work equipment on the ground; if it is neces-
q
sary to park with raised arms, make sure that the safety
locks are engaged (see "3.1 SAFETY LOCKS").
Always lock the equipment and travel control by shifting the
q
safety bars to the lock position (see "3.3.5 MACHINE CON-
TROLS").
When leaving the machine, always apply the parking brake
q
and remove the ignition key.
If it is necessary to park on public roads, provide for signal-
q
ling the presence of the machine according to the local regu-
lations in force (signalling fires, fences, road works ahead,
alternated direction and direction signs, etc.).
